Camping Programs:

Being a Cub Scout is an adventure. There are many new things to discover and try.

Getting into the outdoors is what Boy Scouts is all about. Some of the best memories that Scouting provides are from weekend campouts or attending summer camp. We provide a number of exceptional camping opportunites for Boy Scouts. There are specialty weekend events like Shooting Sports camps and summer camp at Camp Royaneh or Wente Scout Reservation for you to enjoy. No matter what your looking for we're sure you're going to have a lot of fun camping with us.

One of the most exciting parts of Venturing is the flexibilty the program provides. Your Crew can take the parts of Venturing that are most appealing and use those to plan your program. Our Ventruing camping program provides the same kind of flexibility. You can pick and choose the camping events that are right for your Crew and each event has room to adapt when you arrive. So if your ready to have some fun with Crews from all over Northern California, take a look at our programs and we'll see you at camp.

The Scouts shouldn't get all the fun of going camping. There is no reason the rest of the family can't get in on the fun as well. The family camping programs have been developed for the whole family in mind. There are activities for all different ages and skill levels. If you are looking for a great time together with your family, then one of our camps is just what you're looking for.

Camping isn't just a day camp or summer camp activity, it's something that goes on all year long. With that, the 3 camping facilities of the San Francisco Bay Area Council are available for your use through out the year.
